I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) with a joint affiliation with the Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE), the Department of Bioengineering, and the Bioinformatics and Systems Biology (BISB) graduate program at UCSD. My lab is also affiliated with the Center of Machine-Integrated Computing and Security (MICS), the Center of Microbiome Innovation (CMI), and the Institute for Genomic Medicine (IGM) at UCSD.
Previously, I was a postdoctoral scholar at the Genomics Institute at UC Santa Cruz. I obtained my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in 2019 from Stanford University, where I was coadvised by Prof. Bill Dally and Prof. Gill Bejerano. I obtained my bachelor’s and master’s degree in Electrical Engineering (with a minor in Computer Science) from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Bombay in 2014.
I lead the Turakhia Lab at UCSD and our team is constantly looking for exceptionally talented and highly motivated students and postdoctoral researchers to join us. Please visit the apply page for more information.
